Julian Assange: Secret Police Documents Reveal WikiLeaks Founder To Be Arrested In Any Attempt To Leave

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is to be arrested "under any circumstances" if he leaves the Ecuadorian embassy, according to top secret
police documents snapped by a photographer outside the embassy.

Lewis Whyld of the Press Association took the pictures of the documents on a clipboard carried by a police standing outside the building, half-covered
by the officer's arm.

The document puts paid to any legal loophole Assange might have been able to use to get on a plane.

If they truely wanted to keep it "secret" then people should fully understand they do not let any documents out of the room, and no recording
devices allowed in the room either.

This was certainly no mistake.

Solution: put him in a box just about big enough to fit him inside, and plaster as many diplomatic protection stickers on it as possible. Then drive
to Heathrow and Adios U.K, Hola Equador.

They can't the police have been given orders to pull over and search any diplomatic vehicle or material that could contain assange.

As i said the backlash is going to be british diplomats and thier vehicles, documents etc being searched abroad.

Could he
take a helicopter to a ship with a helipad in international waters?

It's hard to believe they were that careless with a "restricted" document, I think those who say they wanted it to be seen may have a point.

Yes, they could dangle a rope for him from a helicopter to the balcony and tie it round his waist but he will probably be shot down by the olympic
rapier missiles nearby, lol.

If he got into international waters the SBS would probably be bought into the mix. He needs to be in equador waters to be safe. The closest helipad I
believe is on the nearby Harrods rooftop away from the embassy.

If they do that, then every country in the world has a right to expel our diplomats, which would be even more embarrassing.

Indeed, but its worse than that IMO, every diplomat will no longer have diplomatic immunity in many areas of the world. This means diplomatic and
secret documents will probably be seized and british diplomatic vehicles pulled over and searched.

This will open a can of worms that wont be able to be contained IMO. In similar words to one former UK ambassador will be open season (no immunity) on
british diplomats in many countries.

That's a very good point, It's amazing to think how narrow minded to some, or sub servant we are to the United States to others, we are as a nation
over something as trivial as one man, regardless of what he's done.

I imagine the'd be some intelligence reports to the situations in the Middle East at the moment in a lot of those diplomatic pouches, too.

How is this Top Secret, or even a surprise? It was all over the dang news last week. They said they would arrest him the minute he stepped foot out of
the embassy. They are waiting in the street for him. Not in disguises, not hidden, but in the street in uniform...waiting to arrest the sorry a-hole
as they should. The man released secret US military plans and is letting his "source" take the fall for all of it. Big man, that Assange. Chicken-s
coward is more like it.

Whilst I may disagree with some here and believe that he is doing this to avoid possible prosecution (and not alleged persecution) and should face his
accusers instead of circumventing the established conventions regarding diplomatic relations. I don't think that seizing him in these circumstances
is the right thing to do because of the precedent it could set that would hurt persons that are truly being persecuted and in need of diplomatic
protections.

CNN covered every angle from leaving his room, to going to the roof, to even going to the elevator.
The embassy is ONLY 4 rooms on the ground floor, they said. He cannot escape in any way possible....

EXCEPT with the plan I had

10,000 people with Guy Fawkes masks on, cloud the area and inside the building (which they are legally allowed to walk
inside) and have him wear one and in the distraction get lost in the sea of people. Drive to a small local airport, fly to another airport and have an
Ecuadorian plane waiting!
